Upload is a different story. It's capped at 0.95 MB/s no matter what.

A better real world test is to download something from a fast server.
IE. Apple or Nvidia. I can download iTunes at an average speed of 2.5MB/sec and peak at 3 MB/sec.
ur speed is auto throttled by the system depending on which package u have. you probably have extreme on a 1 month free promo
